winemaker's notes:

Very rich, but at the same time well-structured and not at all "fat". Very good interplay between floral flavors, mineral acidity and citrus aromas.

This Auslese is still less developed compared to the Spätlese, but will improve remarkably when opening further in the course of the next years. Great aging potential.

Serve this refreshing wine slightly chilled, as an apéritif or, especially when more mature, in combination with seafood and poultry, but also red meat and even fresh fruits. It is also an exciting match for Western style or Asian and Pacific Rim cuisine.

"Aromas of rose, slate and smoke segue into lime and peach flavors in this elegant, stately white. It's crisp and transparent, with precise balance and a classic Mosel profile. Long, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2035." - Wine Spectator

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

About Professional Ratings
These wine ratings are based on a 100-point quality scale, and are selected by each publication's unique criteria. Some wine ratings are expressed as ranges. When this occurs we will list the highest score in the range and note the full range within the tasting note.

While ratings may influence your decision, the ultimate judgment is your palate.
